Improvements and Modifications of Tarone's Multiple Test Procedure for Discrete Data
1998
Tarone (1990, Biometrics 46, 515-522) proposed a multiple test procedure for discrete test statistics improving the usual Bonferroni procedure. However, Tarone's procedure is not monotone depending on the predetermined multiple level a. Roth (1998, Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference, in press) developed a monotone version of Tarone's procedure. We present a similar procedure that is both monotone and an improvement of Tarone's proposal. Based on this extension, we derive a step-down procedure that is a corresponding improvement of Holm's (1979, Scandinavian Journal of Statistics 6, 65-70) sequentially rejective procedure. It is shown how adjusted p-values can be computed for the …
Dynamics of the Selkov oscillator.
2018
A classical example of a mathematical model for oscillations in a biological system is the Selkov oscillator, which is a simple description of glycolysis. It is a system of two ordinary differential equations which, when expressed in dimensionless variables, depends on two parameters. Surprisingly it appears that no complete rigorous analysis of the dynamics of this model has ever been given. In this paper several properties of the dynamics of solutions of the model are established. With a view to studying unbounded solutions a thorough analysis of the Poincar\'e compactification of the system is given. It is proved that for any values of the parameters there are solutions which tend to inf…
A Certain Mathematical Model of the Glass Fibre Material Production
1997
There is considered the full mathematical model of chemical reactions on the surface of glass fibre material that was imbedded in the flow of acid solution and was pulled longitudionally. Self-similar forms of this model are obtained and their approximations by monotone schemes of differences are proposed. Some special cases which make possible to get the analytic solutions are underlined. The self-similar forms of the differential equations of the substances transport allow to calculate the emission of the alkaline oxide from the glass fibre material under the influence of the acid solution flow. Some conclusions with practical significance for the technological process is made up accordin…
Convergence rate of a relaxed inertial proximal algorithm for convex minimization
2018
International audience; In a Hilbert space setting, the authors recently introduced a general class of relaxed inertial proximal algorithms that aim to solve monotone inclusions. In this paper, we specialize this study in the case of non-smooth convex minimization problems. We obtain convergence rates for values which have similarities with the results based on the Nesterov accelerated gradient method. The joint adjustment of inertia, relaxation and proximal terms plays a central role. In doing so, we highlight inertial proximal algorithms that converge for general monotone inclusions, and which, in the case of convex minimization, give fast convergence rates of values in the worst case.
